Governors

Old Fletton Primary School values the support and challenge provided by governors. We appreciate that people with varying backgrounds and interests can add a richness to our understanding of what we can do to achieve the best outcomes for our community.

It is important to balance the need for time to discuss and fully understand certain issues and to not over burden people with unnecessary meetings.

Below is the structure and responsibilities of the governing body and its committees, including levels of attendance.
